How careful are you about what you post on Facebook? How about when you see a friend fire off a nasty post about their boss, their job, or their company - does it make you cringe in fear for them? Legally, we are protected about what we say on Facebook about work, as long as you justify it.
For example: "My boss sucks." Not good enough. "My boss sucks because he thinks working overtime should be mandatory." That's okay.
If you don't believe me, ask your HR rep or Amy McClenathan who's looking for a new job in Phoenix this week after she posted, "I wish I could get fired some days, it would be easier to be at home than to have to go through this,” and the next day - she was.
